'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' will have 'very, very good' 3D effects

Visual Effects Supervisor Tim Burke discusses the ?very, very good? 3D in ?Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2,? as well as the final scene at King?s Cross. 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' will please those wary of 3D and the quality of the film.

One of the most refreshing things about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1was the filmmakers? decision to not upconvert the film to 3D. And, if hard box office numbers are anything to go by, it didn?t seem to hurt the film?s reception one iota.

Skip to next paragraph Screen Rant

Screen Rant had a humble start back in 2003 as a place to rant about some of the dumber stuff related to the movie industry. Since then, the site has grown to cover more and more TV and movie news (and not just the dumb stuff) along with sometimes controversial movie reviews. The goal at Screen Rant is to cover stories and review movies from a middle ground/average person perspective.

Recent posts

Alas, we were not so lucky with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, which has gone through that post-conversion 3D process and will probably be released in more 3D theaters than 2D. Still, there?s hope yet for a quality 3D experience, as Harry Potter Visual Effects Supervisor Tim Burke recently praised the final film?s 3D.

When asked about creating the visual effects for Part 2, Burke said, (courtesy of Hero Complex):

"We were past the wire, actually. We really pushed it right way to the end of any possible time on this one. We had the big conversion to 3D as well, and that sort of added a massive complication. So yeah, we?ve used every second we possibly could."

Speaking of the upconverted 3D, he said:

"I think it?s good, actually. I think people are going to be really pleased. I know everyone?s a little nervous and skeptical of 3D these days, but the work has been done very, very well. We?ve done over 200 shots in 3D and in the visual effects as well, because so much of it is CG, so the results are very, very good. I think everyone?s going to be really impressed with it, actually."

Nearly ten years later, it?s hard to remember just how poor the special effects were inHarry Potter and the Sorcerer?s Stone. For a movie that had immense monetary backing from Warner Bros., top-notch production values in every other category, and one of the best casts in the history of fantasy adaptations, there seemed to be little concern for how the more fantastical elements came across onscreen. Trolls, centaurs, broomstick-flying wizards ? all of it looked terrible, in terms of CGI.

One year later, that all changed with The Chamber of Secrets, a film with special effects that continue to hold up to this day (and will likely hold up in perpetuity). Dobby the House-Elf, the giant snake, broomstick-flying wizards ? all of it looked exceedingly realistic and awesomely impressive. Sure, The Two Towers may have won the Best Visual Effects Oscar in 2002, badly-rendered wargs and all, but Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secretsdeserved to.

The point is, Tim Burke, the man responsible for the massive leap in quality for Harry Potter?s special effects between the first and the second film ? and the continued quality ever since - knows what he?s talking about when it comes to this sort of thing. That said, he?s also an employee of Warner Bros. who specifically worked on the film he?s praising, so his word on the issue isn?t exactly unbiased.

Regardless, Warner Bros. has had the time ? and they certainly have the money ? to craft some serviceable, if not quality, 3D for the final Harry Potter film. This won?t be Clash of the Titans or The Last Airbender. But that doesn?t mean that this particular Screen Rant writer is going to pay the extra five dollars (or whatever) to see either serviceable or quality upconverted 3D.

SPOILERS BELOW!

Lastly, Burke also discussed the final scene in the film at King?s Cross ? which had to be reshot ? wherein Harry, Ron, and Hermione are older and sending their own children off to Hogwarts:

"Oh, yeah, they actually had to re-shoot that. I?d even forgotten about that already. Because they were re-shooting it, they couldn?t go to King?s Cross, where it was staged. So they shot it with green screen, and we had to put King?s Cross in. So that was a surprise. I?d forgotten it all. And then they did some sort of makeup for the aging. But then at the very end, after the audience screening, they asked us to start enhancing it to make the kids seem older. So that was another surprise. See, you just forget these things. I think it?s called therapy. You just try and blank them."

END SPOILERS

How do you feel about the final Harry Potter film being released in 3D? Will you be watching it in 2D or 3D, if you have your druthers? Let us know in the comments.

Guillard interview: Confident in his hands, ?Young Assassin? wants a KO and bonus

Gone is the Melvin Guillard who was questioning himself and getting in trouble away from the Octagon. The new "Young Assassin" is super confident, completely focused on the fight game, a getting a title shot and making lots of money.

Guillard has ripped off four straight wins and is now staring at Shane Roller on Saturday night. The 28-year-old Louisiana-native doesn't give Roller much of a chance.

"I kind of feel sorry for Shane Roller in a way," Guillard told RawVegas.tv (3:50 mark). "I never step in the ring saying I want to kill this guy, but I do want to hurt someone before they hurt me. I want to walk out of this feet with no scratches."

Roller, a former All-American wrestler at Oklahoma State has improved by leaps and bounds on the feet. He even scored a big knockout his last time out against Thiago Tavares.

"With that being said, I'm the wrong kind of guy to learn on," Guillard said. "It's gonna make for a short night hopefully for him. He's definitely gonna wake up with a splitting headache if he tries that wrestling crap with me."

In his last fight against Evan Dunham, Guillard won Knockout of the Night honors and took home an extra $30,000. Guillard said the money went toward buying his wife a 2008 Mustang Cobra. Now he's fighting for bonuses and a nice big house in Norman, Okla.

Fresh Android Apps for June 28: PhotoFunia, Yoo Ninja Plus, Take Me Home (Appolicious)

Today in Fresh Android Apps, put your face on the Mona Lisa using the newest update of PhotoFunia, help a friend find his way back to the forest in Take Me Home and put all your martial arts training to the test in?Yoo Ninja Plus.

Have an unforgettable face? You may not ever be discovered by a modeling scout or be an artists? muse, but that doesn?t mean you don?t belong pictured on billboards or featured in statues and paintings.

PhotoFunia, a photo effects lab that puts your face on over 150 different postage stamps, famous snowboarders and even famous landmarks like the Sphinx of Giza or Statue of Liberty, has just been updated. Recent changes include the ability for users to crop their photos and several bugs have been fixed to improve the overall functionality of the application. This app remains free, as it always has been, and is accessible to users of all ages.

Being a ninja just about having rock hard abs, being able to disappear in a cloud of smoke or climb the wall like Spiderman or wearing a hood mask. It takes years and years of difficult training in solitude. Perhaps the dream of being a ninja is enough?

In Yoo Ninja Plus, you have to run through four different worlds, dodging darts and gaping holes in the Earth to survive. A traditional running game with a bit of a twist, the game has a few different gaming modes, including a story mode to keep things exciting. The app is free in the Android Marketplace.

In the physics game Take Me Home, you have to take Bubu back to the place where he grew up: the forest. It?s not as simple as throwing the little guy on your back and carrying him through the trees, though. This is a pretty involved little quest in which you must plan out your route and be careful to avoid the big, bad wolf-like characters that cross your path along the way.

Microsoft launches Web-based Office, rivals Google (AP)

NEW YORK ? Microsoft has officially launched its Web-based email and Office services, part of its ongoing effort to keep Google at bay when it comes to business software.

"Office 365" has been available in a test version since last year. It combines Web-based versions of Word, Excel and other Office applications. It also includes the Exchange e-mail system, SharePoint online collaboration technology and Microsoft's instant messaging, Internet phone and video conferencing system.

Google Inc. has its own set of office software that's based in the "cloud," that is, hosted on remote servers and accessed online instead of on users' desktop computers.

Microsoft Corp. said Tuesday that it plans to charge $2 to $27 per month for Office 365 depending on what's included. Google Apps costs $4 or $5 per month.

Wisconsin justice says court fight led to choking

Judge voids Wisconsin anti-union law

AP/J. Scott Applewhite

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.

Wisconsin's law taking away nearly all collective bargaining rights from most public workers was struck down Thursday by a circuit court judge but the ruling will not be the final say in the union fight that brought tens of thousands of protesters to the Capitol earlier this year.

The state Supreme Court has scheduled arguments for June 6 to decide whether it will take the case. Republicans who control the Legislature also could pass the law a second time to avoid the open meeting violations that led to the judge's voiding the law Thursday.

Gov. Scott Walker pushed for the law as a way to help balance the state budget that was projected to be $3.6 billion short when he introduced the proposal in February. His spokesman, Cullen Werwie, said the governor would have no comment on the ruling.

Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald and his brother, Assembly Speaker Jeff Fitzgerald, said in statements they believe the Supreme Court will rule in their favor.

"This overdue reform is still a critical part of balancing Wisconsin's budget," Scott Fitzgerald said.

Wisconsin Department of Justice executive assistant Steve Means said the ruling was disappointing and that he was confident the Supreme Court would overturn the decision. The Justice Department argued that the lower court judge had no authority to block enactment of a bill passed by the Legislature.

Ismael Ozanne, the Dane County district attorney who argued for striking down the law, did not immediately return a message.

While Walker and Republican legislators have said they legally passed the bill, they say they would pass it again if necessary to have it take effect when Walker's two-year budget begins July 1.

Still, the judge's ruling is a victory, said Marty Beil, executive director of the state's largest public employee union.

"It tells legislators 'You can't be arrogant,'" Beil said. "You have to do it in the light of day. You can't take stuff away from people in a backroom deal."

If the Legislature legally passes the bill, Beil said more legal challenges attacking its constitutionality will be filed.

Mary Bell, president of the state's largest teachers' union, said she hoped the judge's ruling would lead to lawmakers reconsidering passing the law again.

"It is not in the best interest of students, schools or Wisconsin's future to take the voices of educators out of our classrooms," Bell said in a statement. "We've seen how this issue has polarized our state."

The last time the Legislature took up the issue, tens of thousands of protesters including many teachers descended on Madison in a vain attempt to persuade lawmakers to reject Walker's proposal. The protests, which grew to as large as 85,000 people, lasted for weeks and made Wisconsin the center of a national debate on union rights. Meanwhile, all 14 Democratic senators fled to Illinois to prevent a 20-member quorum to pass the bill. The Senate then called a special committee meeting with roughly two hours' notice so it could amend the bill to take out spending items that required a higher quorum to be present.

Once amended, the Senate passed the bill without the Democrats present and the Assembly followed suit the next day. The Assembly had previously passed the more expansive version of the bill following a 61-hour filibuster by Democrats. Walker signed the stripped-down version into law on March 11.

On Thursday, Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi ruled that Republican legislators violated Wisconsin's open meetings law by calling the meeting at such short notice.

She noted the open meetings law typically calls for 24-hours' notice or, in cases with just cause, two hours. Sumi said nothing justified less than 24 hours for the special committee and declared the law void. She had already put the law on hold while she considered the case.

"Our form of government depends on citizens' trust and confidence in the process by which our elected officials make laws, at all levels of government," she wrote in the 33-page decision.

A day earlier, the Justice Department sent Sumi a letter urging her to consider recusing because she appears biased against the Republicans. The agency pointed to a brief she filed with the Supreme Court outlining her belief and that she has the authority to void a law if the open meetings law was violated during its passage, saying she shouldn't have set out her position before she issued a decision.

A message left at Sumi's chambers Thursday wasn't immediately returned.

The collective bargaining law called for public workers at all levels, from janitors at the state Capitol to local librarians, to contribute more to their pension and health care costs, resulting in savings to the state of $300 million through mid-2103. The law also strips them of their right to collectively bargain any work conditions except wages. Police and firefighters are exempt.

Walker was counting on the savings to help blunt the impact of more than $1 billion in aid cuts to schools and local governments he's calling for in his budget which could be ready to be debated in the Senate and Assembly in mid-June.

Republicans passed it without them present, using a hastily called meeting to put the bill in the form needed to do that. The calling of that meeting with less than two hours' notice is what led to the lawsuit.

China's Wen visits Britain amid release of activist (AFP)

LONDON (AFP) ? Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao toured Britain on Sunday and sought to strengthen trade links, as Bejing freed dissident activist Hu Jia in a move seen as defusing tensions over human rights.

Wen arrived in the central English city of Birmingham on Saturday on the second leg of an European mini-tour, as news emerged that Hu, one of China's most prominent prisoners of conscience, was to be released.

Hu, 37, was jailed on subversion charges in April 2008 after angering the ruling Communist Party through years of bold campaigning for civil rights, the environment and AIDS sufferers. His release followed that of outspoken Chinese artist Ai Weiwei last week.

On his first full day in Britain on Sunday, Wen launched the first new MG car to be made in 15 years, the MG6 model, hailing it as a potent symbol of friendship between London and Beijing.

The new MG6 will be assembled at the MG car plant in Longbridge, Birmingham, which is now owned by Shanghai Automotive Industry Corp (SAIC), China's largest automaker.

"The successful cooperation of the production of the MG6 and other MG vehicles is a symbol of the friendship between China and the UK," said Wen, speaking at Longbridge.

"The model can be summed up as designed in the UK, manufactured in China and assembled in the UK, thereby making the most of China's capital and markets, as well as the UK's technology and managerial expertise."

Outside the factory gates, several dozen protesters were gathered to demonstrate against the visit. The protest included supporters of the Falungong spiritual movement, banned in China, and Free Tibet campaigners.

"Cameron and Wen. Human rights before trade," read the placards of some of the protesters.

The British government's trade minister Stephen Green also attended the MG6 launch and described SAIC as a "pioneer for Chinese investors in the UK".

Wen will hold talks with British Prime Minister David Cameron on Monday and attend a UK-China summit -- at which Beijing is expected to unveil huge investment deals.

Meanwhile, Chinese dissident Hu returned home earlier Sunday after completing a jail term for subversion -- but seemed likely to be muzzled anew.

The human rights activist's release after more than three years in prison comes after Ai emerged last Thursday from nearly three months in police custody amid a government crackdown on dissent.

Hu is widely expected to be hit with the same strict curbs as those applied to Ai and a range of other activists and rights lawyers, who have apparently been ordered to keep quiet in exchange for their freedom.

Hu returned to his home on Sunday morning, his wife and fellow activist Zeng Jinyan said on Twitter.

Britain's Foreign Office has yet to give an official reaction to Hu's release.

EU foreign affairs chief Catherine Ashton welcomed the news -- but her spokesman stressed the bloc's demands for Beijing to treat Hu fairly and accord him "full rights" after his release.

And Germany said it will press human rights issues at its first joint cabinet meeting with China later this week, including the conditions of Ai's release, Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said.

London has been among international critics, with Foreign Secretary William Hague repeatedly speaking out against Ai's detention.

Earlier on Sunday, Wen indulged his interest in Shakespeare with a visit to the bard's birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon, where he was treated to performances of extracts from Hamlet.

The premier, who began his trip in Hungary, will leave Britain on Monday for Germany, where he will stress his support for eurozone economies that have been rocked by a debt crisis, with Greece on the brink of a second bailout.

How You Can Stop Stress and Anxiety

Most people have trouble getting through the day without feeling some sort of financially related, work related or even relationship related strain or anxieties. In some cases these pressures can be so intense that a person can feel as if there is nothing that can be done to prevent stress and anxiety, however there are a few ordinary tips that can be used.

There are a number of physical things that you do which can lead to stress and anxiety as well as make it difficult to control. If you're a smoker, absorb a lot of booze, or a lot of caffeinated beverages, you're putting added stress on your heart and body without adding in any external factors.

Your body is in need of sleep to recharge and recover from the stress and activity of each day. Getting too little sleep or interrupted sleep can cause you to react to stress in an exaggerated manner.

Exercise is a suitable activity to help your body and mind cope with stress and anxiety.

You shouldn't look at maxing out on weights in the gym, although a brisk walk outdoors or a few laps in the pool, may be just what's required. Getting socially involved can be a good stress reliever. Whether you have a chat over the phone or go out to dinner with a friend, even if you instant message with someone supportive on the computer all of these are helpful to stop stress and anxiety.

Meditating and relaxation techniques are quite helpful to help you stabilize your breathing and ensure you sustain a calm demeanor when you feel stressed or anxious. You don't need to go out to become a yoga master, but you can use this practice to help you regulate your breathing and slow the pace of your heart while you are panicked.

The next tip is to take a good look at how your daily life is run.

Are you organized and structured or does everything just sort of happen? Are you a procrastinator that holds off until the last second to get something done? Using a daily planner or other kind of organizational date book can be very beneficial in helping to arrange and de-stress your everyday routine.

If you can get yourself in the habit of writing down things that need to be done ahead of schedule and allocate a goal time or date for yourself, you'll find that you'll be a lot more relaxed.

It is important that you don't add too many responsibilities or deadlines to your daily life.

You need to think about where all those outside pressures come from in order to properly stop stress and anxiety, and there's nothing wrong with informing someone that you're unable to do something because your calendar is already too full.

Friendships can help you feel less isolated and conversations with friends can also help you to discover new ways to stop stress and anxiety. You should certainly consider consulting with a medical professional if you feel that you can't reduce stress by yourself.

Your doctor may decide that it's best to prescribe medication for a short while to help you relax and to assist you with sleeping, but this may not be the only course of treatment to stop stress and anxiety that your medical professional will recommend. Even only a few sessions of therapy can be seen and can be viewed as more of an all over tune up for your mind and body than as a final desperate attempt at relief from stress and anxiety.

Just as stress and anxiety come from many different areas so do the many ways you can deal with your pressures and work through the anxiety.

Miami Sport Fishing

With dozens of miles of pristine coastline converging with the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, the city of Miami, Florida, is quite possibly the world?s epicenter for sport fishing. The fishing area is sectioned off by the Bahamas, the edges of which lie about 50 miles east of the Miami coast. As a result, Miami fishing trips offer some of the most exhilarating and biologically diverse recreation that the planet has to offer, without the dangers of being out in the middle of the high seas. Avid sport fishermen sometimes travel thousands of miles to experience the clear waters and the incredible diversity of fish that can be hooked and reeled in.

Many purchasing options are available for people looking to take a sport fishing vacation to Miami, including commissioning a Miami charter boat or renting a Miami party boat. Whatever your pleasure, getting on a vessel and experiencing the incredible marine life of the area is something that should absolutely be done while visiting the fine city of Miami. Sport fishing tours are a major industry in the area, and many businesses are run by friendly folks equipped with the knowledge and savvy to make your sport fishing experience a lifelong memory.

A few dozen quality sport fishing locales dot the landscape along the Miami Beach strip, as well as the Bayside Marketplace region and Key Biscayne. The adventures range from authentic and rustic tours led by seasoned locals who have been in the business for decades to well-polished corporations that cater to a passenger?s every need.

Although the environment is tropical and the vibe is laid back, folks who operate Miami charter boats and other Miami fishing trips are well-trained professionals who know how to handle any situation the untamed sea can present. Before patrons embark on the fishing element of sport fishing tours, they will first be informed of the basics of how to move around a sport fishing boat and what to do when the action begins. Once that has been completed, the fun is ready to begin.

Whatever way you opt to access Miami?s prime sport fishing areas, you will likely be whisked about 10 or 15 miles off of the coast to where the sea floor rises, creating a concentrated thoroughfare for fish headed toward cooler waters of the the Atlantic. Naturally, accessing an area with a greater density of fish enhances the entire sport fishing experience. Folks who have opted to go with Miami party boats might not be quite as focused on the fishing festivities, but when someone on-board pulls a bright blue spearfish out of the water, you can be sure it will garner much attention.

Recreational sports fishermen from all over the world regularly pull amazing and exotic catches out of the saltwater using nothing more than determination and a little bit of technique. People are sometimes scared off by the idea of getting on a boat and battling some of the greatest athletes of the sea, but those folks can be comforted by the fact that the elements are controlled, the equipment is often state of the art and the staff and captains are thoroughly experienced at doing their jobs.

It is no secret that some of the planet?s most dynamic and awe-inspiring fish are swimming in the waters off of the outer coast of Florida. The aquatic life ranges from delicate and beautiful to large and aggressive. Swordfish are commonly hooked in the warm coastal waters and rarely look forward to boarding a fishing boat, creating a genuine challenge to sport anglers of all experience levels. They are just one of the well over 100 fish that are hooked regularly during Miami charter boat trips and Miami fishing trips. Incredible celebrations of evolution can be spotted regularly throughout the voyage, such as the barracuda or the sailfish, which are as beautiful as they are dangerous.

Mackerels, sea trout, tarpon and various types of tunas, groupers and marlins are amongst the most common species pulled out of the waters in the Miami area. Each has a unique and incredible color scheme that has been brought out by the salts of the sea. Many will be equipped with some type of weapon that has come standard with their biological structure and should be handled delicately while getting the fish on deck and posing for pictures that will soon make their way onto social networking websites.

Every single line that wiggles during a sport fishing tour is like a birthday present falling from the sky, or perhaps more accurately, rising from the depths. No one can be sure what is going to emerge on the other end of the hook, but it is certain to be an exotic and tropical catch that is full of passion and fight. Because of the clarity of the waters, hooked fish can often be seen 10 to 15 feet below the surface of the waves. The initial moments of a catch are incredible. First, a vague shape appears in the depths and quickly rises to the surface as the color and size of the fish become clear, at which point pulses quicken and endorphins are released. The first time a fish breaches the water is a sight to behold, as the being inadvertently shows off its intense beauty, strength and fear. Certainly not every fish that is hooked on Miami party boats or a Miami charter boat will be successfully reeled in, but many sports fishermen subscribe to the notion that the chase is the best part of the hunt.

Much like a lifelong baseball fan visiting the sport?s Hall Of Fame in Cooperstown, NY, all true sporting fishermen need to pay a visit to the city of Miami at some point in time. The city is a celebration of geological and human beauty, and an epicenter of the sport fishing universe. Common tourists often traipse around town looking for the freshest seafood. Sport fishermen go out and get it themselves.

Trying To Help The Rehabilitation Of Inmates By Using Inmate Phone ...


Prisons are getting more and more humane with every passing year. In the 20th century the prison used to be a terrible place in which violence was overwhelming. Nowadays prisons help by keeping all the felons away from the society and impose a punishment against them. Of course different crimes are dealt by different people, this is why the harm done by the inmates often varies, but meaningless what crime the prisoner has committed he has the same rights as all other prisoners. Each of those prisoners is burning of desire to get in touch with his family, household and friends. This is why the telephone system was applied to the prison facilities. It benefits the prisoners by uplifting their psychological state and makes them want to change their life so that they can once again unite with their family and friends.

The main benefit of the inmate telephone system is that it corrects the state of mind of the inmates and makes them safer and not a threat for the surrounding people. If a person is kept away, without contact from his family he is more likely to try to hurt somebody or commit an even worse crime. If that inmate gets expelled from the outside world where his family, friends and an entire society are, he will loose his psychological stability and become more open to bad influence. While if the opposite happens and the inmate has a possibility to talk with his family, friends and understand what is happening in the outside world. He will find out that there are people who care about him and he will try to change his mentality and become a complete member of the society.

The inmate telephone system also strongly helps the rehabilitation of the inmate. The contact with his family members and friends will keep the hope in him that he will one day be free of this treacherous place and be able to live along with other people. His family should try to make his life easier and keep flowing good thoughts in his mind while he is spending his time in prison. Some good words from a known voice can lift the psychological and spiritual state of a prisoner to new highs.

However not all inmates will use that extra for those purposes. There are surely some who will try to connect with their previous friends who influenced them to commit the crime, because of which they?re now in prison. This is why almost all companies which offer inmate telephone systems track every call and in case of a try to use the system for the wrong reasons the call will be ended and the inmate suspended. This is the one and only minus of the inmate telephone systems, but as you can see it is ensured that no such thing will happen.

And the benefits from the telephones inside the prison facility are not only for the prisoner, but also about his family. They will know that their closest friend is alive and is trying to correct his mentality and himself to be better. The inmate telephone system should be added to absolutely every prison, because it is a huge step to the good side in the rehabilitation of prisoners and their return to the open community.

July 1: First News Photo Printed, Second Half of the New Year Day, First U.S. Zoo, Creative Ice Cream Flavor Day, Second Half of the New Year Day (ContributorNetwork)

First News Photo Printed

Today, images drive news -- from fiery buildings to tornado destruction. The use of startling photos in news photos is not new; it's been around since 1848. A photo depicting a riot in Paris, in which more than 3,000 Parisians died, was published in '"Illustration of 1-8 July 1848" and " this scene is regarded as the first photograph used to illustrate a newspaper story. The people seen in the distance are no more than dark dots as often in photographs of the time," according to the Musee d'Dorsay.

The daguerreotypes are credited to a photographer named Thibault who took the photos from a rooftop. Engravings were made of the daguerreotypes and printed in the weekly newspaper.

Second Half of the New Year Day

The year is half gone or you still have half left. It depends on you. Have you accomplished any goals for 2011 yet or are you waiting to ramp up in the second half of the year (which is here)? If your well-intentioned New Year's resolutions have been forgotten as quickly as MySpace, you still have six months to act.

* Evaluate goals and adjust or set new ones.

* Congratulate yourself on what you've accomplished in the first six months of the year.

* Take a much-needed vacation to reward yourself or clear your head before the next six months of productivity.

First U.S. Zoo

For 25 cents (10 cents for kids) visitors were admitted to the Philadelphia Zoological Society, the first zoo in the U.S. According to the inflation calculator, the equivalent admission today would be about $4.76 (2010). Actual ticket price in 2011? $18 for adults and $15 for kids.

The Philadelphia Zoological Society welcomed 3,000 visitors when it opened on July 1, 1874.

* Find a zoo near you.

Free zoo admission:

* July 1, 2001: The Buttonwood Zoo in New Bedford, Mass.

* First Wednesday of every month: the San Francisco Zoo, offers free admission the first Wednesday every month.

* July 3: Military / Veterans Family Free Day at Milwaukee County Zoo, Milwaukee, Wis.

* July 10: Kids 14 and under who bring their report cards and enter the zoo with a paying adult get in for free at the Buffalo Zoo in Buffalo, N.Y.

Creative Ice Cream Flavor Day

Where and when did the inspiration for ice cream first strike? According to the "One plate of Ice Cream" appears on a list of foods served at east of St. George at Windsor in May 1671, according to Recipes for ice cream also appear in a cookbook attributed to Mary Easles in 1718. The Italians are credited with making full milk ice cream, although China had iced dairy products thought to have been brought from Afghanistan before 1,000 A.D. ("The Oxford Companion to American Food," 2007)

What about creative ice cream flavors? Forget Ben & Jerry's (just for a minute) and consider Herrell's. Steve Herrell is credited with the gourmet ice cream craze, inspiring Ben and Jerry and developing the now-standard smoosh-in concept in specialty ice cream stores. Currently operating as Herrell's in Northampton, Mass., the store serves up dense ice cream in seasonal flavors like Guinness, Jalapeno or Cheesecake. You can also go for malted vanilla or more standard flavors, done with the Herrell's twist, like Malted Vanilla, Chocolate Pudding.

* Be inspired and make your own ice cream flavor combinations. Smoosh-in dried fruit, homemade chocolate or your favorite cookies.

* Make crunchy buttermilk , or taffy apple or ice cream.

Learn to Use Free Adverts for No Cost Web Traffic Building ...

One of my favorite ways of no cost web traffic building that works wonders, yet is often underestimated and overlooked, is using free online advertising sites. Can you use these sites to generate traffic, leads, and advertising to build your business? Absolutely. In fact, when I first got started with internet marketing and home business, I built an affiliate network of over 300 personally sponsored affiliates within a matter of weeks using NOTHING but attractive classified ads placed FREE on many high traffic sites.

What kind of website gets the best results with this method of free web traffic generation? Well, similar to traffic exchanges, classified advertising works very well for generating leads and sales through effective splash, lead capture, sales, and affiliate landing pages. But you can also generate traffic to any website, webpage, or blog that you choose. Because classified ads let you clearly target your audience, the traffic that is generated usually converts into leads and sales, as it has for me.

The KEYS to Successful Free Classified Ads?

Use The TOP Sites-The web holds 1000?s of free classified sites on the web, but only a percentage of them are worth your time. There are two things that you want to look for in a classified site.

1- Alexa Rank-Obviously the advertising sites that have the most traffic are going to provide the most free website visitors to you. Look for sites that get plenty of traffic, and stay away from the ones who have not yet built their sites up with a strong user base.

2- Page Rank-Classified ad sites that have higher PR will give you more return that low PR sites. Your ads can get listed by the search engines under any keywords you use in your ads, and higher PR sites get listed quicker and easier. And also, you can increase your link popularity through ongoing classified ads, and high PR sites give the best links and no cost website visitors.

Create Powerful Headlines- In reality, your headline will be the most important part of your entire ad. Why? Because unless it does what you need it to do, the rest of your ad cannot get its job done either. The headline essentially has two jobs; to target your audience and to get them to click on your ad. Use a benefit oriented approach, and immediately tell what problem you solve or what benefit you offer. Also, try to use exciting, attention grabbing words.

Talk About the Customer Benefits- Many people do not understand the keys to professional copy writing, but you can easily master the art of writing great ads with one simply technique. Always think in terms of the benefits that will be gained by your prospect from clicking on the link to your website, page, blog, or affiliate link. Remember, people are not interested in you, but they ARE definitely interested in what you have that can benefit THEM.

Tell People What to Do- It seems so simple that it can often be overlooked, but a simple call to action has been proven time and again to lead to more of whatever action you are trying to get. In the case of classified ads, you are trying to get the readers of your ad to click on your link to visit your site. So, tell them to do exactly that. ?Click the link for more FREE info!? is a simple example of a call to action that can get more people to visit your site?. giving you more traffic.

North Dakota city faces flood evacuation deadline (AP)

MINOT, N.D. ? Thousands of Minot residents faced a Wednesday deadline to evacuate their homes for a second time in a month as the rising Souris River moved closer to swamping the North Dakota city with what is predicted to be its worst flood in four decades.

Officials have ordered about 11,000 people, or a quarter of the city's residents, to evacuate by 6 p.m. But they cautioned even that deadline may be too generous, and said they are prepared to sound warning sirens if water spills over Minot's protective levees any earlier.

"Public safety is paramount," Mayor Curt Zimbelman said Tuesday. "The water is rising fast, and people need to get evacuated as soon as possible."

Water from the Souris River, which loops down from Canada through north central North Dakota and is bloated by heavy spring snowmelt and rain on both sides of the border, is forecast to top the city's levees by late Wednesday or early Thursday, the National Weather Service said Wednesday. Initially forecasters said it would wash over the levees by Friday.

The resulting deluge is expected to dwarf the historic flood of 1969, when the Souris reached 1,555.4 feet above sea level. The river was less than one-tenth of a foot from that level early Wednesday. It's expected to hit nearly 1,563 feet by June 30 and will likely top the historical record of 1,558 feet set in 1881 by Friday.

National Weather Service meteorologist Nathan Heinert said Wednesday that the timing of the crests is hard to predict because of the lack of precedent for the river hitting such a high level.

"This is abnormal levels. There's a lot of uncertainty. There is more uncertainty the higher (the water) goes. These crests are probably subject to further changes," Heinert said.

About 10,000 Minot residents were evacuated earlier this month before the river hit 1,554.1 feet. They were later allowed to return to their homes, but told to be ready to leave again quickly.

The 1969 flood prompted the Army Corps of Engineers to build a dike system that has been beefed up several times since. But those levees are unable to contain the latest flows coming south from Saskatchawan.

Zimbelman said crews are focusing efforts on building dikes to protect critical infrastructure such as the sewer system, water plants, schools and City Hall. The city also is working on plans to put up secondary dikes outside fringe areas.

Officials at Minot International Airport, which sits on a hill on the north part of town, said the airport will remain fully operational.

"Once we have the critical sites secured, we'll start on these other areas trying to protect as many homes and businesses as possible," he said. "We will continue until the water pushes us out of the area."

Similar protective efforts are being made in the nearby 1,200-resident town of Burlington.

Gov. Jack Dalrymple said Tuesday that residents in Burlington evacuation zones need to be out by noon Wednesday. Ward County residents living along the river must evacuate by 6 p.m., he said.

About 41,000 people live in Minot, the fourth-largest city in North Dakota. It was formed in the late 1800s during construction of the Great Northern Railroad. Its economy is bolstered by the extensive agricultural community that surrounds it, as well as by Minot Air Force Base and the recent oil boom in western North Dakota.

Nearly 500 North Dakota National Guard soldiers were in Minot to provide traffic control, ensure people were leaving left their homes and secure neighborhoods.

Guard commander Dave Sprynczynatyk said he expected the impending flood to be one of greatest as far as impact on the community as a whole that he's seen during his 40-year career.

"What I see right now is probably the most devastating in terms of the number of people directly impacted and what will likely be the damage to homes as the water begins to overtop the levees and fill in behind," he said.

Ann Hoggarth, who lives alongside the river, said she felt almost numb Tuesday as she struggled to move some of her belongings to higher ground.

"I've got three stories so I'm hoping the furniture will be OK upstairs," she said, "but I'm a single mom and I had to ship my kids off to their dad, so I don't have anyone to help me."
